How can I connect to MySpace at school?Can u help me get into myspace because my school blocks it is there any way to get in, and if yes can u tell me how to me how and what i got to do to get in. This is an awkward sort of question to receive, because there are some ways that you can redirect Web queries and otherwise mask what site you're visiting, something that I have no problem with if you're an adult and responsible for your own actions. For example, if I lived in China or the Middle East, I wouldn't want some government agency making the decision of what sites I could or couldn't visit, and would be pleased to know how to circumvent their filters and visit what I wanted to visit. But you're in school, and I'm also guessing that you're in grades 6-12, not college, from your writing style and query, which means that you aren't legally autonomous and aren't really responsible for your own actions. Further, while I might sound a bit like an overly conservative stick in the mud, as a parent myself I am always concerned about filtering and protecting my own children from the dark side, the bad folk on the Internet. The motivation behind your school blocking MySpace is doubtless the same, combined with a desire to ensure students stay focused on schoolwork when they're in school, using school resources, not messing around with social networking sites. It shouldn't be news to you that there are some bad people on MySpace and a little bit of help managing your interaction might well be of value, however tedious it may seem to you. So my gut reaction is to say "no, you can't get around it. Rules are rules and if you want to get to MySpace from school, you need to be able to get permission with some sort of smart, logical argument to the administration." Indeed, I've written about how to block MySpace: How do I keep my kids off MySpace? But perhaps I'm being a bit uptight about this particular issue, so I have also asked my friend Bennett Haselton, who runs the interesting Peacefire site, for his thoughts on this subject. Bennett responds: Peacefire.org lists four different methods on our front page for accessing blocked Web sites including MySpace.com, so at least one of those methods should solve your problem. But I can't stop there, without responding to what Dave wrote. I volunteer with many smart and intelligent teenagers, and I'd like to think that I used to be one. When I first joined online discussions as a teenager, most people assumed I was an adult, and many teens online have had the same experience. If teenagers are so silly and immature, how come most people can't tell the difference when they can't look at the person and see how old they are? The main reason teenagers aren't "autonomous" is not because they're lazy and dumb, it's because they're forced to work all day for free. If Dave had to spend all day writing papers and cramming for American History tests, he'd probably have to live with his Mom just like you. Even if you think it's important for citizens to know their American history (and I do), there's no logical reason for forcing minors to learn it, but not adults. (If anything, there's a stronger argument for making adults learn it, since they're the ones who need to put current events in a historical context and cast an informed vote. I don't think either age group should be *forced* to learn history, but if you're going to require it of anybody, logically it should be the adults!) As it is, it's just more work that teenagers have to do for free, and one more artificial roadblock to their becoming independent. In fact, for most of human history, teenagers were considered to be far closer to adults than to children. (Jewish kids don't have their bar mitzvahs at 18, after all.) What happened in recent centuries was that as jobs got more complicated, it became necessary to stay in school longer before you could go out and work. (Some of the things you learn in school do matter, after all.) However, just because you have to stay in school longer, that doesn't mean the *natural age of human maturity* has gone up. But we raised the effective age of adulthood anyway, and that's how we ended up with lunatic rules like the notion that you're not "mentally competent" to get a library card without parental permission when you're 17. So, sorry to use your plight as a springboard for my political rant, but I hope you got your answer in the first paragraph. You're welcome. Dave again: All well and good, Bennett, but shouldn't we at least have some reference to "the school pays for the resources, the school gets to control what you can and can't do on them?" or something? Anyway, I hope this answer gives you both what you seek and some addition things to think about.

Okay, so the schools have blocked every single way to get into myspace. I know, I know, it sucks but the district pays people to find out ways to get onto myspace and then they block it. Heres the thing. You can still get onto email sites such as AOL, YAHOO, HOTMAIL, VERIZON, and many others. So just create an account with any of those and tell your friends to do so aswell. Then you can talk to them easily. I have just stopped trying with myspace and I just go on at my house. You wont die without myspace for like 5 hours a day. As to those of you that are still trying to get onto myspace an wont ever stop...GOOD LUCK =]] mohamed said, on August 15, 2006 3:08 PM:

all of those $#@*$# sites are blocked! Kaleigh said, on October 17, 2006 10:53 AM:
My high school, suddenly and unexpectedly, blocked all the ways to get on to myspace at school, including practically every proxy server known to man. I would really like to understand why they are blocking myspace. I can understand public chatrooms and other ways where perverted old men can talk to younger girls, but myspace? Honestly, it's completely harmless. You can even have friends only view of profile, you can edit what comments you want to be posted on your page, and it requirer login. It is the student's responsibility to NOT post any information about themselves that could result in an unwanted stalker. The school should be teaching about internet safety, instead of just blocking it all at school. When students go home and get on their computers, myspace isn't blocked then. Therefore they are not protecting any one. They should teach internet safety at the school, not just hide us from what happens anyway. They are not stopping anyone. They are just making our lives more complicated. But guess what school administrators, you can't stop us from doing what we really want. What you should be doing, is informing us about why it's wrong. ps. any help in getting onto myspace with other proxy servers, would be nice. ur mom said, on October 17, 2006 4:51 PM:

You can access myspace from school via online web proxy server, hide your IP address and bypass firewall restrictions: http://www.hidemyway.com (you can LOGIN to MySpace and access your profile easy from school, working on 13.11.2006!!!!!) http://www.msproxy.net and http://www.surfinter.net If this is not working please contact webmaster and we will setup other proxies before school ban it.

I dont understand what the big deal is about myspace. There are some kids that are more responcible than others. If you didnt want to talk to people then dont answer there messages. Also there are some kids that are smart enough to ONLY add people they know. But i am in school right now. Surfing the Internet. There are plents of sites i know how to get to that will let me through to myspace. Kelsey DuBose said, on November 16, 2006 11:48 AM:

I see so many requests here to access myspace from school. And some justifications also. However, I dont think it is a very cool idea. I know how you feel, my office blocks a lot of sites and it is frustrating. But one reason that I think is justified to block myspace and other internet sites is that it is an attempt to make you lesser dependant on the internet to keep in touch with people. jessica said, on December 13, 2006 1:32 PM:

Hey, everyone. I'm a junior in high school, and I've read all of these comments. I, too, wish to access Myspace from my school, if only to alleviate boredom during my Web Page Design class. However, I understand the school's side of things. They are responsible for our safety, and as much as we argue, the fact is that Myspace is no less dangerous than other sites like it. It may have safety features, but there are still creepy people on this site. Not only are sites like these read by the people who want to get on Myspace, they are read by the very administrators who block the sites from the computers in the first place. Myspace may be lots of fun, but your life will go on if you don't figure out how to access it at school. It isn't a matter of urgency that you can't access this site, trust me. So please, everyone, hack away, I mean, that's part of the fun, right? But keep your perspective, please. School is school, and it can't be too fun, right? Hanna said, on January 22, 2007 2:47 PM:
By the way, Dave, I think it's very clever of you to require your postees... (is that right?) to do some simple addition. It wouldn't let me post at first, because I put that 10+7=Fish. Very clever. danny said, on January 22, 2007 4:30 PM:

Miranda said, on February 12, 2007 7:21 AM:
See, the reason none of these sights work is because everything you do is saved onto the history of your computer. The only way to ensure that the proxy website you're using can't be blocked is to go into the history and delete you ever being there. go to the back button and click the little arrow pointing down. click history. click today. then they'll never know you were there. or you can just live without myspace for a day, and just get on when you get home. 7 hours is not that bad. ashley said, on February 12, 2007 10:47 AM:
